PREVENTION OF SOUTH CAUCASUS DESTABILIZATION ONE OF MOSCOW’S PRIORITIES

Development of bilateral and multilateral relations with all CIS member countries is a priority of Russia’s foreign policy, says the Russian Federation’s Foreign Policy Concept confirmed by President Dmitry Medvedev. “Russia builds relations with each of CIS member states on the basis of equality, mutual benefit and interests. Trade and economic ties will develop to strengthen preconditions for modern methods of integration,” the Concept says. Russia will develop cooperation with CIS member states to ensure security, to combat international terrorism, extremism, drug traffic and illegal migration and to prevent destabilization in Central Asia and Transcaucasia… As a mediator, Russia will continue contributing to resolution of conflicts in the CIS area and search for agreements between the sides,” the document says, kremlin.ru reports.
